I hope Hermione is not far behind on going up for preorder!Looks like Ron is next.
Sounds like he goes up on the 16th.
I would love a representation of all three at year 1, year 3, and year 7.Still disappointed these aren't the older year figures, but I'll still be ordering. Ron looks great. Who knows if we'll ever get a teenaged Ron at this quality, so no sense in passing up.
Sure hope this gets to our homes before 2028 though.
I think they could probably get away with year 1 and year 7 because they're just so vastly different and you can probably sell a lot of people on buying a second version that way. I hope it happens eventually. It would be nice to have the most definitive looks for the characters on display.I would love a representation of all three at year 1, year 3, and year 7.
I agree that year 1 and 7 would be most logical. Besides the big three, I at least need Snape and Dumbledore.I think they could probably get away with year 1 and year 7 because they're just so vastly different and you can probably sell a lot of people on buying a second version that way.

I also hope they do a few professors to go with the kids. We know Dumbledore is in the works, but once Harry comes, he's going to stand with Newt Scamander on my shelf. A McGonagall or a Lupin would be a much better partner for him and Ron.
I believe the rumor was that JND will be doing the older versions if you want to wait for them but maybe that's wrong. Be annoying to see them also do young versions.Still disappointed these aren't the older year figures, but I'll still be ordering. Ron looks great.

After Hot Toys, InArt and JND all made that Ledger Joker within 12 months of each other, I don't trust anyone to make real variety anymore.I believe the rumor was that JND will be doing the older versions if you want to wait for them but maybe that's wrong.

At this rate you will probably get the year 7 version in about 7 years time … if you’re luckyI would love a representation of all three at year 1, year 3, and year 7.
They're also aware that they're not outputting 20 figures a year like Hot Toys is. Making 4 characters from 1 line means that's less characters being made from another property or license that they can do. I'm surprised as it is that they're doing 4 from HP. They don't want to be stuck with one property.I don’t get the feeling InArt is really into making ‘lines’ just yet. LotR and Harry Potter seem to be the two properties so far with multiple characters in the works, with many being one-offs or multiple versions of the same character (Joker, Batman). I wouldn’t get hopes up of seeing much, if any, beyond the main three and Dumbledore. They’ll make for a nice display to represent the franchise but I have doubts of seeing the likes of Hagrid, Snape, or Voldemort (how can they artisan a hairless character?) let alone other popular main and side characters.
He might not be hairless, but their Cavill Superman doesn't have rooted hair (except the curl on the angry sculpt) and they managed to "artisan" that figure at almost $400 so I'm more than sure they'd be able to do it for Voldemort if they really wanted to.They’ll make for a nice display to represent the franchise but I have doubts of seeing the likes of Hagrid, Snape, or Voldemort (how can they artisan a hairless character?) let alone other popular main and side characters.
There’s much more to these figures than just real hair that makes them great or artisan.I don’t get the feeling InArt is really into making ‘lines’ just yet.

Well said on beyond just the hair. One of the most exciting parts about this line for me is the diorama you can get with these. The castle is such a big part of this story and these characters. Having a nice size section of the Gryffindor Common Room with all three placed together is going to make for a stunning display.There’s much more to these figures than just real hair that makes them great or artisan.
The proportionate bodies, super detailed, accurate and textured sculpts, lifelike, moveable eyes, fine tailoring, a variety of well selected materials, exquisite paint work, beautifully crafted dioramas, a vast array of interchangeable hands and accessories, each of which represents a quality miniature in itself; just look at that spell book Ron is holding…
A bit of glued on hair isn’t nearly enough to warrant the artisan label. (Yes’ that’s a shot fired at Hot Toys.)
